I want to HMAC SHA256
hash the normalized request using the client secret and base64 encode the result. I am getting different result in python
and typeScript
. My goal is to achieve python
result in typeScript
. How to do that?
I was able to convert hashlib.sha256
(Here is my approach) to typeScript
equivalent but not sure about hmac.new
Python Code:
import hashlib
import hmac
import base64
request = "Hello World";
secret = "MySecret"
requestBytes = bytes(request.encode('utf-8'))
secretBytes = bytes(secret.encode('utf-8'))
hmacConversion = hmac.new(secretBytes, requestBytes, digestmod=hashlib.sha256).digest()
signature = base64.b64encode(hmacConversion)
print(signature)
Output:
b'm4nZSWE3Y/tPXToy/0cJMGpR2qpsXgCnF3tsSiZtYt0='
TypeScript Code:
var secret = "Hello World";
var body = "MySecret";
var hmac = crypto.createHmac("sha256", secret)
.update(Buffer.from(body, 'utf-8'))
.digest('hex');
console.log(hmac);
var hmac2 = crypto.createHmac("sha256", secret)
.update(body, 'utf-8')
.digest('hex');
console.log(hmac2);
Output:
f1f157335b0982cbba94290163d61582a87352817788b793238817dd631c26d4
I found the answer. This is very silly mistake where I spent 1 day. Hope this would save someone's day.
Code:
var crypto = require('crypto');
// Below was silly mistake. In my question those parameters are swapped.
var body = "Hello World";
var secret = "MySecret";
var hmac = crypto.createHmac("sha256", secret )
.update(body)
.digest('base64')
console.log(hmac);
Output:
